Abstract
Description
[0001] This application is a divisional application. The original application has the application number "202210718677.3" and the application date "June 23, 2022". The invention title is "Fully Automatic Glass Washing Equipment". Technical Field
[0002] This invention relates to the field of glass cleaning equipment, and particularly to a cleaning fluid circulation system and corresponding glass cleaning equipment. Background Technology
[0003] In the glass manufacturing industry, according to traditional manufacturing processes, the shape of glass is machined using CNC machining. However, due to differences in materials and processing techniques, machining marks, burrs, oil stains, and other defects are left on the surface of the formed glass during CNC machining. These defects are then manually repaired. A common method is to place the glass in a custom-made fixture, heat the cleaning solution to a certain temperature, and then manually scrub the glass surface with a special brush to achieve cleaning. This method can achieve the purpose of cleaning the surface, but it is not very efficient. It requires manual placement of each piece of glass on the cleaning carrier plate and repeated scrubbing until the surface is free of defects. It requires a large amount of manpower for placement and scrubbing, and the quality of products cleaned manually is not consistent. Some small areas are easily missed or not cleaned by hand, resulting in a low yield. In addition, the glass washing process wastes a lot of water resources, and existing equipment cannot effectively reuse water resources.
[0004] Therefore, it is necessary to provide a cleaning fluid circulation system and a corresponding glass cleaning equipment to solve the above-mentioned technical problems. Summary of the Invention
[0005] This invention provides a cleaning fluid circulation system and corresponding glass cleaning equipment to solve the problems of low efficiency, low yield, and waste of water resources in the prior art of manually cleaning glass products.
[0006] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the technical solution of the present invention is: a scrubbing liquid circulation system, which includes a water tank body, a cover body, a water supply pump, a water inlet pipe, an outlet pipe, a filter and a filter pump;
[0007] The water tank includes a clean water tank and a wastewater tank, which are connected by a filter and a filter pump. The inlet pipe is connected to the clean water tank, and one end of the outlet pipe is connected to the clean water tank via a water supply pump, while the other end is connected to a spray tank. The cover is located on the top of the water tank, and the top of the cover has a water receiving tank and an addition hole for adding detergent. The water receiving tank is located below the scrubbing assembly and is used to receive the scrubbing liquid used by the scrubbing assembly. The water receiving tank is connected to the wastewater tank, and the addition hole is connected to the clean water tank.
[0008] In this invention, a liquid level display tube is connected to the outside of the clean water tank and the sewage tank respectively.
[0009] In this invention, a drain pipe is connected to the bottom of the clean water tank and the sewage tank respectively, and a drain pipe is connected to one side of the clean water tank.
[0010] In this invention, a heater and a temperature sensor are connected to one side of the water purification tank.
[0011] The present invention also includes a glass cleaning device, which includes the above-mentioned cleaning liquid circulation system, a positioning mechanism and the cleaning assembly. The positioning mechanism is disposed on one side of the cleaning assembly. After the glass product is placed on the positioning mechanism for positioning, it is then picked up and placed into the cleaning device for cleaning.
[0012] In this invention, the positioning mechanism includes a fixed plate, a positioning drive mechanism, a support plate, positioning blocks, a spring member, and a spring connecting plate. The support plate is disposed on the fixed plate, and a plurality of positioning blocks are disposed on the support plate. A positioning groove for positioning the glass product is formed between the positioning blocks. The spring connecting plate is slidably disposed on the fixed plate and is driven to slide by the positioning drive mechanism. The spring member is connected to the side of the spring connecting plate near the positioning groove, so that the glass product is positioned in the positioning groove by controlling the movement of the spring member.
[0013] The support plate is provided with a guide groove for limiting the sliding of the spring.
[0014] In this invention, the brushing assembly includes a movable plate, a brush roller, a fixed frame, a pressing drive mechanism, a brush drive mechanism, a spraying trough, and a pressing frame.
[0015] The downward pressure drive mechanism is fixedly mounted on the fixed frame. The downward pressure frame is raised and lowered relative to the fixed frame and is connected to the downward pressure drive mechanism to obtain driving force. The brush roller is rotatably mounted inside the downward pressure frame and is connected to the brush drive mechanism to obtain rotational driving force. The spraying groove is mounted on the inner top surface of the downward pressure frame for spraying brushing liquid onto the brush roller. The spraying groove is connected to the output pipe of the brushing liquid circulation system. The moving plate is slidably mounted below the brush roller for transporting glass products for brushing.
[0016] Furthermore, the scrubbing assembly also includes a sliding frame, a first return spring, a second return spring, and an air blowing mechanism. The sliding frame is slidably disposed on one side of the fixed frame, and the sliding direction of the sliding frame is consistent with the sliding direction of the moving plate. The first return spring is used to control the sliding frame to slide and return to its original position. The air blowing mechanism is slidably disposed on the sliding frame. The moving plate is provided with a linkage rod for squeezing and driving the air blowing mechanism to slide. The sliding trajectory of the air blowing mechanism includes at least a sliding component away from the linkage rod. The second return spring is connected between the air blowing mechanism and the sliding frame to allow the air blowing mechanism to slide and return to its original position.
[0017] The blowing mechanism has a pressure-receiving inclined surface on the side away from the brush driving mechanism, and a driving surface on the side away from the brush driving mechanism. The linkage rod presses the driving surface, thereby driving the blowing mechanism to move synchronously with the moving plate. The fixed frame is provided with an extrusion member, and the extrusion end of the extrusion member is located on the sliding trajectory of the blowing mechanism. The linkage rod or the extrusion member cylinder presses the pressure-receiving inclined surface, causing the blowing mechanism to slide relative to the sliding frame, thereby causing the sliding trajectories of the blowing mechanism and the linkage rod to be misaligned.
[0018] Compared to existing technologies, the advantages of this invention are as follows: The glass washing equipment of this invention is equipped with feeding and receiving components at both ends of the conveyor line. Glass products are conveyed via trays on the loading and unloading conveyor, enabling automatic feeding and receiving. Then, a product picking device grabs the glass products from the conveyor line, places them on a positioning mechanism for positioning, and then picks them up and places them into the washing device for cleaning. The picking and transferring accuracy is high, and it can form automated loading, unloading, and washing, improving the washing efficiency and quality of glass products. Furthermore, the washing liquid circulation system can recycle the washing liquid, resulting in low cost and high washing liquid utilization. Attached Figure Description

The directional terms used are for the purpose of explaining and understanding this invention, and are not intended to limit this invention.
[0035] The terms "first" and "second" used in the terminology of this invention are for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance, nor as limiting the order of events.
[0036] In this invention, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "installation," "connection," "linking," and "fixing," etc., should be interpreted broadly. For example, a connection can be a detachable connection or a connection of an integral structure; it can be a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; it can be a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; it can be a connection within two components or an interaction between two components.

This process requires significant manpower for placement and washing, resulting in low efficiency. Furthermore, the quality of manually cleaned products is inconsistent; some minor areas are easily missed or not thoroughly cleaned, leading to low yield rates.
[0038] The following is a preferred embodiment of a glass washing device provided by the present invention that can solve the above-mentioned technical problems.
[0039] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 ,in Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of the glass washing equipment of the present invention using an outer casing.

[0040] In the diagram, units with similar structures are represented by the same labels.
[0041] The present invention provides a glass washing device, which includes a loading and unloading conveying device 12, a product picking device 13, a positioning mechanism 14, and a washing device.
[0042] The loading and unloading conveyor 12 includes a conveyor line and a feeding assembly 123 and a receiving assembly 124 located at both ends of the conveyor line. Glass products 17 are conveyed onto the loading and unloading conveyor 12 via a tray 125. A product picking device 13 and a washing device are located on one side of the loading and unloading conveyor 12. A positioning mechanism 14 is positioned between the product picking device 13 and the washing device. The product picking device 13 picks up the glass product 17 from the conveyor line, places it on the positioning mechanism 14 for positioning, and then picks it up again for washing. This automated loading, unloading, and washing process improves the washing efficiency and quality of the glass products.
[0043] Please refer to Figure 3 In this embodiment, the conveyor line includes a first conveyor section 121 and a second conveyor section 122 that are connected to each other. A feeding component 123 is located at the end of the first conveyor section 121 away from the second conveyor section 122, and a receiving component 124 is located at the end of the second conveyor section 122 away from the first conveyor section 121. The loading and unloading conveying device 12 also includes a pre-positioning component 126 and a loading positioning component 127 located below the first conveyor section 121. The product picking device 13 picks up the glass products intercepted by the loading positioning component 127, while the products intercepted by the pre-positioning component 126 can prepare for subsequent loading and washing, thus improving efficiency.
[0044] Please refer to Figure 4 and Figure 5 The feeding assembly 123 includes a feeding base plate 1231, a feeding lifting plate 1233, a feeding positioning assembly, and a feeding support assembly.

The receiving lifting plate is raised and lowered relative to the receiving base plate and is located inside the second conveying section. The receiving support assembly includes a receiving clamping rod and a receiving support block. The bottom end of the receiving clamping rod is slidably connected to the receiving base plate, and the receiving support block is connected to one side of the top end of the receiving clamping rod. The receiving clamping rod moves to support or avoid the multiple trays 125 stacked on the second conveying section 122. The receiving positioning assembly is disposed on the receiving base plate and is located on the side of the receiving lifting plate away from the first conveying section 121, and is used to prevent the bottom tray 125 of the multiple stacked trays 125 from being conveyed.
[0046] The feeding positioning assembly, the pre-positioning assembly 126, and the loading positioning assembly 127 have the same structure. They all include a positioning cylinder 1234 and a blocking member connected to the telescopic rod of the positioning cylinder 1234. The blocking member consists of a blocking plate 1235 and a blocking post 1236 set on the blocking plate 1235. The blocking member is used to block the movement of the material tray 125 on the first conveying section 121.
[0047] Please refer to Figure 4 and Figure 5 In this embodiment, the feeding support assembly includes four feeding clamping rods 1237, and two feeding clamping rods 1237 on the same side are connected to the clamping cylinder 123B through the same adapter plate 1239. The adapter plate 1239 is slidably connected to the feeding base plate 1231. The receiving support assembly also includes four receiving clamping rods, and its structure is the same as that of the feeding support assembly.
[0048] The middle part of the feeding lifting plate 1233 is connected to the feeding lifting drive mechanism 1232. The feeding lifting plate 1233 is provided with a first weight reduction hole, which has low cost and can support a larger area. The four corners of the feeding lifting plate 1233 are slidably connected to the feeding base plate 1231 through the first guide rod 123A.
[0049] The middle part of the receiving lifting plate is connected to the receiving lifting drive mechanism. The receiving lifting plate is provided with a second weight reduction hole. The four corners of the receiving lifting plate are slidably connected to the receiving base plate through the second guide rod.
[0050] In addition, a pushing mechanism 128 is provided on one side of the first conveying section 121. The pushing mechanism 128 is used to push and position the material tray 125 blocked by the feeding positioning component 127, so that the position of the material tray 125 is more accurate and the product picking device 13 can pick up the glass product 17 more accurately.
[0051] Please refer to Figure 6In this embodiment, a scrubbing device is provided on both sides of the product picking device 13. The product picking device 13 includes a robotic arm 131, a suction nozzle 136, a first mounting plate 134, a second mounting plate 135, a picking cylinder 133, and a connecting flange 132. The picking cylinder 133 is connected to the execution end of the robotic arm 131 through the connecting flange 132. The first mounting plate 134 is connected to the telescopic rod of the picking cylinder 133. The second mounting plate 135 is connected to one side of the cylinder body of the picking cylinder 133. Multiple suction nozzles 136 are provided on both the first mounting plate 134 and the second mounting plate 135. The picking cylinder 133 controls the extension and retraction so that the first mounting plate 134 and the second mounting plate 135 can be misaligned for targeted picking and placing operations. The first mounting plate 134 and the second mounting plate 135 correspond one-to-one to supply material to the two scrubbing devices, resulting in high picking efficiency.
[0052] In this embodiment, the positioning mechanism 14 includes a fixed plate 141, a positioning drive mechanism 142, a support plate 143, positioning blocks 144, a spring element 145, and a spring connecting plate 146. The support plate 143 is disposed on the fixed plate 141, and a plurality of positioning blocks 144 are disposed on the support plate 143, forming positioning grooves between the positioning blocks 144 for positioning the glass product 17. In this embodiment, the positioning blocks 144 are triangular in shape.
[0053] The spring connecting plate 146 is slidably mounted on the fixed plate 141 and is driven to slide by the positioning drive mechanism 142. The spring member 145 is connected to the side of the spring connecting plate 146 near the positioning groove, so that the glass product 17 is positioned in the positioning groove by controlling the movement of the spring member 145.
[0054] Furthermore, the support plate 143 is provided with a guide groove 1431 for limiting the sliding of the spring member 145, thereby improving the stability of the spring member 145 in compression positioning.
[0055] Understandably, each scrubbing device can be equipped with a positioning mechanism 14.
[0056] Please refer to Figure 12 Alternatively, two washing devices can share a single positioning mechanism 14. The positioning mechanism 14 includes two support plates 143 located at different heights. The two support plates 143 are used to receive the glass products 17 provided by the first mounting plate 134 and the second mounting plate 135 in a one-to-one correspondence. The spring members 145 corresponding to the two support plates 143 use the same spring connecting plate 146. By sliding, the upper spring member 145 can be misaligned with the lower support plate 143. This design features a high component sharing rate, making the positioning operation procedure for the two sets of glass products on the product picking device 13 more economical and efficient.
[0057] Please refer to Figure 8In this embodiment, the scrubbing device includes a scrubbing liquid circulation system 16 and a scrubbing assembly 15. The scrubbing assembly 15 includes a moving plate 155, a brush roller 159, a fixed frame 152, a pressing drive mechanism 151, a brush drive mechanism 154, a spraying tank 1535, and a pressing frame 153.
[0058] The downward pressure drive mechanism 151 is fixedly mounted on the fixed frame 152. The downward pressure frame 153 is raised and lowered relative to the fixed frame 152 and is connected to the downward pressure drive mechanism 151 to obtain driving force. A baffle plate 1536 is provided around the downward pressure frame 153. The baffle plate 1536 can form a good shielding and protection and facilitates the recycling of the brushing liquid by the brushing liquid circulation system. The brush roller 159 is rotatably mounted inside the downward pressure frame 153 and is connected to the brush drive mechanism 154 to obtain the driving force for rotation. The spraying trough 1535 is set on the inner top surface of the downward pressure frame 153 for spraying brushing liquid onto the brush roller 159. The spraying trough 1535 is connected to the output pipe 165 of the brushing liquid circulation system 16. The moving plate 155 is slidably mounted below the brush roller 159 for transporting the glass product 17 for brushing.
[0059] The extension direction of the spray trough 1535 is consistent with the extension direction of the brush roller 159. The spray trough 1535 is specifically set on the inner surface of the lower pressure plate 1532, and the outer surface of the lower pressure plate 1532 is provided with a connection hole for connecting to the output pipe.
[0060] The four corners of the lower pressure frame 153 are slidably connected to the fixed frame 152 via guide posts 157. The brush drive mechanism 154 includes a motor located on the top of the lower pressure frame 153, and the motor is connected to the brush roller 159 via belt drive.
[0061] The scrubbing assembly 15 is mounted on the base box 11, and an outer cover 111 can also be mounted on the top of the base box 11 to enclose the loading and unloading conveyor 12, the product picking device 13, the positioning mechanism 14, and the scrubbing device.
[0062] Please refer to Figure 8 and Figure 9 The movable plate 155 is slidably mounted on the base box 11. A material plate 158 is detachably mounted on the movable plate 155. The material plate 158 is provided with a plurality of suction holes 1581 for sucking up glass products 17 and a ventilation hole 1583 that passes through and connects the plurality of suction holes. The ventilation hole 1583 is connected to a vacuum generator.
[0063] The top surface of the material plate 158 is provided with a sealing ring 1582 to tightly suck up the glass product 17. Each sealing ring 1582 surrounds the periphery of a corresponding suction hole 1581. The top surface of the material plate 158 is provided with a mounting groove for installing the sealing ring 1582.
[0064] Please refer to Figure 8 and Figure 11 The washing liquid circulation system in this embodiment includes a water tank 161, a cover 16A, a water supply pump 162, a water inlet pipe 166, a filter 164, and a filter pump 163.
[0065] The sink housing 161 includes a clean water tank 1611 and a wastewater tank 1612. The clean water tank 1611 and the wastewater tank 1612 are connected by a filter 164 and a filter pump 163 to purify the water in the wastewater tank 1612 and then supply it to the clean water tank 1611. A water inlet pipe 166 is connected to the clean water tank 1611 to deliver scrubbing liquid into the clean water tank 1611. An outlet pipe 165 is connected to the clean water tank 1611 via a water supply pump 162. A cover 16A is located on the top of the sink housing 161. The top of the cover 16A has a water receiving tank 16A1 and a detergent adding hole 16A2. The water receiving tank 16A1 is located below the movable plate 155 and is used to receive the scrubbing liquid used by the scrubbing assembly 15. The water receiving tank 16A1 is connected to the wastewater tank 1612, and the adding hole 16A2 is connected to the clean water tank 1611. The cleaning solution can be recycled, resulting in low cost and high utilization rate.
[0066] Please refer to Figure 11 A liquid level display tube 16B is connected to the outside of the clean water tank 1611 and the sewage tank 1612 respectively, which makes it easy to observe the depth of the scrubbing liquid in the inner cavity.
[0067] The bottom of the clean water tank 1611 and the sewage tank 1612 are each connected to a drain pipe (the two drain pipes are labeled 168 and 169 respectively), and a drain pipe 167 is connected to one side of the clean water tank 1611.
[0068] A heater 16C and a temperature sensor 16D are connected to one side of the water tank 1611, which can accurately control the temperature of the scrubbing liquid, resulting in excellent scrubbing effect.
[0069] Please refer to Figure 10 In this embodiment, the lower pressure frame 153 includes a lower pressure plate 1532, a movable seat 1533, and a fixed seat 1534. The fixed seat 1534 is fixedly connected to one end of the bottom of the lower pressure plate 1532, and the movable seat 1533 is slidably connected to the other end of the bottom of the lower pressure plate 1532. The movable seat 1533 and the lower pressure plate 1532 are detachably fixed together by a latch 1531. The brush roller 159 is connected between the movable seat 1533 and the fixed seat 1534. By disassembling and sliding the movable seat 1533, the brush roller 159 can be easily disassembled and assembled.
[0070] Please refer to Figure 2 and Figure 8A profile frame 18 is provided on the outer periphery of the washing component. A connecting shell plate can be wrapped on the profile frame 18 to encapsulate the washing component. Then, a fume extractor can be installed on the profile frame 18 to quickly extract the water mist inside and prevent water droplets from forming inside the profile frame.
[0071] The brushing assembly 15 in this embodiment also includes an air blowing mechanism 156. The air blowing mechanism 156 can be fixedly installed on one side of the fixed frame 152 and located above the sliding track of the moving plate 155, and is used to dry the glass product 17 after brushing.
[0072] Please refer to Figure 13 Optionally, the air blowing mechanism 156 can also be movably arranged relative to the fixed frame 152. The brushing assembly 15 also includes a sliding frame 21, a first return spring, a second return spring, and an air blowing mechanism 156. The sliding frame 21 is slidably arranged on one side of the profile frame 18 (the profile frame 18 is fixed relative to the fixed frame 152). The sliding of the sliding frame 21 can be referenced to the track 24. The first return spring is arranged between the sliding frame 21 and the track 24 to control the sliding return of the sliding frame 21.
[0073] The sliding direction of the sliding frame 21 is consistent with the sliding direction of the moving plate 155. The air blowing mechanism 156 is slidably mounted on the sliding frame 21. The moving plate 155 is provided with a linkage rod 23 for squeezing and driving the air blowing mechanism 156 to slide. The sliding trajectory of the air blowing mechanism 156 includes at least a sliding component away from the linkage rod 23 (in this embodiment, the sliding direction of the air blowing mechanism 156 relative to the sliding frame 21 is...). Figure 3 (in the left and right directions), the second reset spring is connected between the air blowing mechanism 156 and the sliding frame 21 so that the air blowing mechanism 156 slides and resets.
[0074] The blowing mechanism 156 has a pressure-bearing inclined surface 1561 on the side away from the brush drive mechanism 154, and a driving surface 1562 on the side away from the brush drive mechanism 154. The linkage rod 23 presses the driving surface 1562, thereby driving the blowing mechanism 156 and the moving plate 155 to move synchronously. This allows the blowing mechanism 156 to remain stationary relative to the material plate 158, and can continuously dry the washed glass products during the movement without the moving plate 155 needing to stop moving to perform the drying operation, thus improving efficiency.
[0075] An extrusion member 22 is provided on the profile frame 18. The extrusion end of the extrusion member 22 is located on the sliding trajectory of the air blowing mechanism 156. The linkage rod 23 or the extrusion member 22 cylinder extrudes the pressure inclined surface 1561, causing the air blowing mechanism 156 to slide relative to the sliding frame 21. This causes the sliding trajectory of the air blowing mechanism 156 and the linkage rod 23 to be misaligned, allowing the linkage rod 23 to slide back and forth below the air blowing mechanism 156 with the moving plate 155.
[0076] The working principle of the present invention is as follows: First, the stacked trays 125 are manually placed on the feeding support assembly. Then, the feeding lifting plate 1233, the feeding positioning assembly, and the feeding support assembly will transport the bottom tray 125 of the stacked trays 125. Then, the pre-positioning assembly 126 and the feeding positioning assembly 127 will stop the tray 125 in sequence.
[0077] Then the product picking device 13 grabs the glass product 17 on the stopped tray 125, and can pick up multiple glass products at a time. Then it places them into the positioning groove on the positioning mechanism 14, and the glass product 17 is squeezed and positioned by controlling the spring element 145.
[0078] Next, the product picking device 13 picks up the positioned glass product 17 and places it on the material plate 158. The moving plate 155 carries the glass product 17 and slides it under the brush roller 159. The pressing drive mechanism 151 controls the pressing frame 153 to press down, and the brush roller 159 starts to rotate. At the same time, the brushing liquid circulation system 16 sprays brushing liquid onto the brush roller 159 through the spray tank 1535. During the brushing process, the moving plate 155 can continuously move back and forth to improve the brushing effect. During the brushing process, the temperature of the brushing liquid is monitored by the temperature sensor 16D and can be heated by the heater 16C to ensure efficient brushing within a certain temperature range.
[0079] After washing, the lower pressure frame 153 moves upward, and the moving plate 155 moves and passes through the air blowing mechanism 156 for drying. Finally, the glass product 17 is picked up by the product picking device 13 and placed back onto the material tray 125 at the loading position, and the material tray 125 is conveyed to the receiving assembly 124 by the second conveying section 122. Then, the receiving lifting plate lifts the material tray 125, and it is clamped and supported by the receiving support assembly.
[0080] This completes the process of cleaning glass products using the glass washing equipment of this preferred embodiment.
[0081] The glass washing equipment of this preferred embodiment is equipped with a feeding component and a receiving component at both ends of the conveyor line. The loading and unloading conveyor conveys glass products through a tray, and can automatically feed and receive materials. Then, the product picking device picks up the glass products on the conveyor line, places them on the positioning mechanism for positioning, and then picks them up into the washing device for cleaning. The picking and transfer accuracy is high, and it can form an automated loading, unloading and washing process, which can improve the washing efficiency and washing quality of glass products.
[0082] In summary, although the present invention has been disclosed above with reference to preferred embodiments, the above preferred embodiments are not intended to limit the present invention. Those skilled in the art can make various modifications and refinements without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. Therefore, the scope of protection of the present invention shall be determined by the scope defined in the claims.
